Access Laptop when the screen is closed?
« on: October 24, 2011, 07:09:24 AM »
Is there anyway to remote into a laptop if said laptop has its screen closed and is hibernating (or sleeping)?

Thanks!

generaly if the machine is hibernating it is not accessible.
If you change the power setting so it does not hibernate, and also change then event of closing the lid to "do nothing" it should remain accessible.

Thank you very much, this worked like a charm. I have set both my laptops to "do nothing" when I close the lid, and set them to "never" sleep and its working perfectly! You rule!
